Each CV has a pointer, C<CvOUTSIDE()>, to its lexically enclosing
CV (if any). Because pointers to anonymous sub prototypes are
circumstances we should decrement the refcount of the parent when freeing
the child.

+There is a further complication with non-closure anonymous subs (i.e. those
that do not refer to any lexicals outside that sub). In this case, the
anonymous prototype is shared rather than being cloned. This has the
consequence that the parent may be freed while there are still active

+=item find_uninit_var
+X<find_uninit_var>
+
+Find the name of the undefined variable (if any) that caused the operator o
+to issue a "Use of uninitialized value" warning.
+If match is true, only return a name if it's value matches uninit_sv.
+So roughly speaking, if a unary operator (such as OP_COS) generates a
+warning, then following the direct child of the op may yield an
+OP_PADSV or OP_GV that gives the name of the undefined variable. On the
+other hand, with OP_ADD there are two branches to follow, so we only print
+the variable name if we get an exact match.
+
+The name is returned as a mortal SV.
+
+Assumes that PL_op is the op that originally triggered the error, and that
+PL_comppad/PL_curpad points to the currently executing pad.
